Master Of None

Chapter 2271: 2271. Wind And Space

"I swear there was an apple right here." a woman was curious where the apple she had just placed on the market stall counter had just gone.

"Sorry about that, I am experimenting with space mana and the apple was switched with me." Walker stepped down from the air and an odd wave of mana pulsed around him as he used the space mana to bring the apple back.

The small fruit stall was right next to the magic tower. That was why Walker was able to try his theory that two items could teleport at the same time.

He quickly handed the apple back and was aimlessly wandering now. The woman setting up the new apples on her fruit stall was very surprised and would have a decent bit of gossip for the day. Not that Walker minded that sort of thing, his mind was focused on what he had learned through meditation and the gathering of space mana.

The same idea that he had to use elemental manas to allow for a balance to be reached for teleportation and the use of space mana was still there. Ut worked better this way and he knew that if he wanted to have a more pure form of moving using space mana he would need to be somewhere that was purely made of space mana.

That meant the elemental planes. He couldn't go there to practice this though. He had been banned by the origin being watching over the area. Mostly for his safety since he was learning about the elemental manas still. He was technically not even scratching the surface of some of the manas at their truer and purer states. The world was still adjusting.

However, he had begun to grasp the space mana better. So much so that he was able to move himself and another object using it and the surrounding elemental manas to make sure the places that they were was not disturbed by losing manas.

This was without the elemental rune teleportation formation too, which was pretty great for Walker's growth. But he could still do more, he could feel it. Hence why he was wandering aimlessly while practicing.

Looking ahead, Walker used the familiar pulling that he had when using space mana. It wasn't enough to teleport anything larger than himself, but when he used it to move himself, it was amazing.

The speed that Walker could use this self teleportation or small item teleportation was spectacular. Compared to how hard it was before, he could not use it just in a few breaths while focusing properly. The only downside was that he needed to be in tune with the manas surounding him and the area that he wished to move.

This limited him to where he could sense. Not that this was a small area. If Walker desired, he could spread his senses to most of Genesis, if not all. However, if he did that, he would be forced to only focus on that and using this short distance teleportation would be impossible. But if he could feel the mana which would swap places and fill the emptiness where he had been, then he was able to do it. Meaning that he would be able to dodge at the last second or even manipulate manas from a much greater distance. It meant that he was that much more powerful now.

Moving items was also a benefit. For simple reasons as such that he would be able to send more to the other teleportation formations. The sooner he showed off these skills to the rune carvers and the researchers, the better things would be. He just had to do some more mediation on spatial mana first. Walker was certain that he could do even more with what he had learned.

It was like he touched the very tip of what space mana could do, but he was held back because he was not fully grasping what he sensed when he used it. As if he was corrowing the space mana and not truly letting it flow through him as he did with natural mana.

Otherwise, he had failed a few times before he had successfully used the short distance teleportation skill. Where he had failed, he had been left sick a few times. His senses had been shaken so hard that he was sure that he would rather spend a full year stuck on the ships in the worst of storms than making this mistake again.

Luckily, there were no serious injuries, but the chaotic mana within his body had taken a full hour of serious focus to properly settle. Failed teleportation was something that Walker planned to have a solution to if it happened to anyone else. He should be able to use healing skills focused on life mana to properly adjust any mana related issues from such a condition.

Regardless, his failed attempts had also yielded a decent buff skill which he had not expected to discover. But he had thought that he would be able to use space mana for speed and some form of expedited transportation. He had used elemental manas with minor amounts of space mana within the elemental planes to do so.

Therefore, as Walker had used the wind walking skill, he had focused some space mana in to it causing the wind to wrap his body in a more unique way than what he had done before. The way that the wind flowed through him was closer to that of how it acted when he used the wind to work as a small deterrent for thrown attacks, such as arrows or rocks.

Not that he needed this sort of defense often, he usually had other means of dodging or someone defending him. But knowing the feeling and then noticing how space mana worked with it, the wind flash skill he had gained was easily the best method of boosting his and other's speed in a short time.

While it was only a skill that could be use once per cast of the mana, Walker was sure that he would be able to use it in the most opportune times. Whether it was on an ally spo that they could leap forward for an attack at a further distance than their opponent would expect, or to dodge and create distance. Either way, the skill was great.

The space mana fused with the wind mana to be able to cause a sudden shift in the wind in front of and around the one that was buffed with this one time use skill. As such, they could use their next movement at easily five times as fast as what it normally would be.

It didn't affect the casting of magical skill or anything like that, but physically, it could allow a slash or general movement to be much better. Walker just needed to test it more and see if the same could be done when under water. His mind had been racing with all these ideas since now he could manipulate space just enough to bring that mana together with other elemental

manas.

He did feel a blockage in his attempts to mix multiple manas together with space. As if it was stopped by some unseen wall. Not necessarily a harsh barrier from him being able to move ahead in his studies, but like he was missing something that was in desperate need to make the mana flow as he desired.

This was all chalked up to him being inexperienced with the mixing of manas in a more unique form. Such as the mixing of wind and light to make radiant wind or healing winds. He could sit and meditate on those two manas mixing and need to see where it brought him before he attempted to bring in space mana to change the unique effects of such manas again. As Walker had flitted about the sky, he had never noticed that many people had begun to gossip about the hero using odd magic in the sky. How he had even teleported a few small items from here to there. Even paying for apples with gold while not moving from a

significant height.

He had started quite the rumor about the experimentations of his magic. Some children had even begun to call him a ghost mage since he could disappear and appear elsewhere in the

blink of an eye.

While a little childish, Walker would have to explain to a few people what he had been up to. Especially Midnight and Remey who he had just spotted taking a rest within the coliseum. They had been sparring for some time now, and naturally, when Walker randomly appeared above the coliseum, their interests were piqued.

As anyone would have been. It was natural to be curious.
